Thank you, building management, for accommodating we bicyclists. We know how tired you are from scraping off literally one hundred and fifty thousand square feet of asphalt in the car parking lots, and we appreciate this gesture of love and inclusion. Amen.

…I live in Kenmore Square and commute through Boston to a suburb 14 miles distant …Fortunately I can bring my bike into work to a secure location, and I'm not hesitant about taking a bike into an establishment where I might be doing some business. Otherwise I just don't use the bike if I have to leave it anywhere…

Your neighborhood looks like that episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation where Wesley was playing frisbee or something downplanet with some local youths, and ended up sentenced to death for stepping on the wrong grass. Not sure why.

me??

it's england, whatcha expect? there's lights, a toolbox with tons of tools and tubes, and CCTV inside the bike lockers ... we have a faculty-only version as well, which is nice.

My workplace is extremely bike friendly. We can bring our bikes right in the office (up elevator or 1 flight of stairs) and we have a bike rack in the office. Bike rack does fill up pretty much every day, but we are allowed to lean our bike against walls, wooden support polls, etc., as long as its not in the way. We even have a shower room for those of use with longer commutes or to change in inclement weather.

Supposedly the building has a bike storage room on the first floor as well, but I, and my coworkers, all seem to feel safer knowing our bikes are where we can see them during the day and employees of other companies in the building don't have access.

I can roll my bike right into the building. Then I have the option of either leaving it in an open space under the stairs on the ground floor or taking it up the elevator to my 4th floor office. I usually leave it on the ground floor. There are only about three or four of us in the building who regularly bike commute.

Mine gets parked on a rack inside a secured garage. Just above the rack is a CCTV that is monitored by law enforcement. They also pass my bike on a regular basis while on patrol. I wonder why I even lock it.

I park my folding bike in a an empty cubicle across from my desk. It's become sort a storage area anyway, so no one seems to mind. I used to fold the bike before getting on the elevator and carried it, but now I just roll it into the staff workroom. Mind you, I work in a library, and this takes me across a public floor, but no one has objected. A coworker got a folding bike (with me as inspiration ) and rolled her bike to her desk, so I did the same. Another coworker leaves her non-folding beater bike unsecured in the area near the staff elevator (the area is closed to the public, but used by all the staff). She used to park her previous bike on the street until it got stolen, so our director suggested that she bring her new bike into the building.
